The Lumineers – are proud to announce their highly anticipated new album ”Automatic” + First single ‘Same Old Song’ premiered today

The Lumineers are proud to announce their highly anticipated new album, Automatic, available via Dualtone worldwide on Friday, 14 February 2025. 

The 2x GRAMMY® Award-nominated and chart-topping band’s fifth studio album and first new collection in more than three years, Automatic is heralded by the exhilarating first single, ‘Same Old Song’, available everywhere now. True to form, the track, like the rest of the album, was written by co-founders Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites. Being one of the few top groups who writes all their own material is, says Schultz, “a unique badge of honor.”

“This album marks 20 years of songwriting between Jeremiah and me,” says Wesley Schultz. “The album explores some of the absurdities of the modern world, like the increasingly blurry line between what’s real and what’s not, and the variety of ways we numb ourselves while trying to combat both boredom and overstimulation.”

A speedy chronicle of misadventures showcasing The Lumineers’ undeniable flair for a soaring rave-up, ‘Same Old Song’ is joined by an official music video featuring Schultz and Fraites performing in front of a living canvas where scenes play out like VHS home movies, creating a morphing collage of moments that feel both immediate and remote. The projections provide a surreal, mysterious window into the mind and memories of The Lumineers, visually manifesting the song’s emotionally resonant lyrics. Directed by filmmaker Anaïs LaRocca (Hundred Waters), ‘Same Old Song’ premiered today.

After twenty years of musical partnership, Automatic finds Jeremiah Fraites and Wesley Schultz traveling new sonic and thematic terrain with their most raw and personal collection thus far. Both men, now dads, fully embraced the life-altering, unromantic challenges and rewards of family life. When they reconvened to write, the emerging songs featured a new, aching vulnerability, sly humor, and bold acknowledgements of need – for love, respect, and connection in an increasingly chaotic world.

“People who think they have our number,” says Jeremiah Fraites, “they’ll be surprised.”
